Crocheters Unite!!!

It is great to see so many people crocheting.  Makes me wonder if the Minnesota Twins are going to have a "Stitch and Pitch" night.

Are there "Stitch and Pitch" Events scheduled in a major league baseball field near you??

Minnesota and Illinois Musings

Yes we had a great weekend in Chicago. We are baseball fans, and each year we take a trip to a away game ball park. This year it was Wrigley.

We booked our tickets in January so we have been looking forward to it for sometime. It was a very fun weekend, the weather was good, and Chicagoans went out of their way to talk to you.

There was a bit of a rain delay in the start of the game, but it cleared off during the game and by the end we were in the sun. Temps were cold - like see your breath cold - but we dressed warm and it worked out well.

Wrigley field was amazing. to think it is almost 100 years old and still in use. We thought about all the people who have attended the games during the past 100 years. Our Twins won the game we attended, although it was a little tense there in the 9th inning. Of course we were there to enjoy the game so it really did not matter who won -- we love to watch baseball.

On Saturday night we walked around downtown Chicago, and ate dinner at the ESPN restaurant. We got back to our hotel at 10 pm -- we were gone 11 hours and it went fast.

What a fun weekend -- if you are a baseball fan this is a great trip to take with your family.

Minnesota Musing

Spring is trying to come, we had a little snow this past weekend. It is sunny and trying to get warm. A bit windy, so once the wind settles down, things will really start growing.

I like the change of seasons, but after 5 months of cold weather it is time for spring.

One thing about Minnesota is many people enjoy being out of doors, especially in the warmer weather. Alot of people do not take summer vacations because they want to enjoy the weather here.

So spring weather cannot come fast enough -- especially for Minnesota.
